Re: 01/13/2008 Game Thread 39: Pacers at Warriors

Yeah I don't know if this is going to alleviate any stress after the Colts game.

Warriors are rested (for once) and at home, they don't lose too many of these games against lesser opponents.

I hope JOB doesn't intend on having Kareem Rush guarding Monta Ellis. He'll get dusted every single time down the floor. Dude made his first 11 shots the other night and I wouldn't put it past him to have another great night.

Re: 01/13/2008 Game Thread 39: Pacers at Warriors

I sure as hell hope that JOB does not play Tinsley more than 20 minutes tonight ..

If Tinsley plays the majority of the pg minutes.. we will lose this game....
I sure as hell DO NOT want to see the mel-mel / o'neal show tonight... cause if I do , I wont even bother watching the rest of game... cause Tinsley will FIND a way to lose it for us...

I hope JOB has seen the light with this new smaller line-up ..

If the same lineup and player rotation is played tonight , that was played against the kings... It could very well end up being a game of the year candidate... I could very well see GS becoming as much of a rival team to Indiana , as Detroit is...

There will be alot of competitiveness tonight... as this is the first game that Dun Dun , Murph, and Ike will have played against their former team... Then for GS you have .. Jack , Harrington , and Croshere.. who you just KNOW ... want to rub a win in our faces...

(I would have mentioned Sarunas , but seeing as how Nelson wont play him , he is a non-factor this game...) I see Dunleavy especially stepping up in this game... I just hope he dont lose confidence , and only shoot 7-9 shots .. I mean after all GS fans treated him like ***** , booing him at their own home games ... I see a VERY HEATED rivalry being formed in front of our eyes tonight....

I think that if JOB lets Diener play 28 to 30 minutes like he did last night... that we will see another 19+ point game out of him... I personally think he is gonna burn baron up at the point offensively.... The only advantage I see in that matchup for Baron Davis... is the fact that he drives the lane alot and can be a high flyer when he wants to be... and defensively he is a little bit more effective and seasoned than Diener...
But I think Travis is too fast for him... lol

Ya I think tonight's game is gonna be a thrilla ...

I forsee 1 of 2 things happening tonight...

Either we will win by a total blowout...
or
I see us fighting a hard fought battle into OT , possibly Double OT ... with Pacers coming up with the win..

Personally I think the latter will occur ..

IF..... and I mean IF ... JOB dont push Tinsley down our throats this game...

As I said before... if that happens.. we will lose this game.. ....mark my words...

.

Baron Davis probably doesn't even know who Diener is.

And I don't see this becoming a rivalry, there's no significance in a matchup that happens only a couple of times per season and places little bearing on the playoffs. The meeting last year wasn't even close either.

Re: 01/13/2008 Game Thread 39: Pacers at Warriors

I disagree .. only for the fact you have 2 teams that traded a combined 8 players ... and believe me there is animosity between the players and their former teams... watch what i say.. this is going to be a good game..

Re: 01/13/2008 Game Thread 39: Pacers at Warriors

You are probably right , hell he prally don't even know who is president right now.. lol... ..Although I enjoyed watching him play in the playoffs last year.... Baron's a knucklehead at times ... and a loose cannon..

Re: 01/13/2008 Game Thread 39: Pacers at Warriors

My interest fades in and out. Reggie and Jack were far and away my favorite Pacers and without their presence, it ain't really like I have too much invested in a team that's several hundred miles away to begin with.

I reallly hope that Tinsley does play.....Baron is going to abuse Diener on the offensive end. This is going to be one of those situations where I think that Diener won't be a good PG......I DO NOT WANT Diener to guard Baron.....he's just going to shoot over him everytime.

I see you really keep up to date with the nba, i certainly will watch out for your postings.

If it was for Saras, Diener would be the next revelation ?

Re: 01/13/2008 Game Thread 39: Pacers at Warriors

I came home to see the colts lost...and was shocked...without philip rivers and LT!? wtf?
Pacers probably lose this one...end of a road trip on a back to back...I bet we lay down and die if the warriors hit their 3's early.

Re: 01/13/2008 Game Thread 39: Pacers at Warriors

Read this thread... its amazing how much they hate Dun. You would think he's Bill Buckner. The W fans have had this game circled on the calendar. I'd give my left nut for Dun to score 50 tonight and the Pacers win.
